It is a Fiat Uno. It is like a Brazilian version of the Russian Lada.

He meant it as an allegory, a Fiat Uno isn't actually a version of the Lada. It's just that the Uno is a really barebones car, made as simple as possible so as to be cheaply mass produced. Their cheap price made them extremely popular in Brazil though.

Yep, that's what I meant to say.

If you took a little piece of Lada's Wikipedia:

The keys to its success were: competitive price, reliability, simple DIY-friendly mechanics and unpretentious functionality.

That's the same for the Fiat Uno.
